There’s a broad consensus that American education needs increased emphasis on STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). Surprisingly though, there’s little clarity or consensus on the best way to address this need.

There is so much we want to talk about as we launch the Creative Learning Systems blog: learning philosophy, directions in STEM education, case studies, innovative technologies, politics, funding... It’s a long, long list and it all matters. But there was never any question that our first entry would be about the kids that inspire us.
